Abstract

The article discusses the migration and school trajectories of young migrants in higher secondary and middle education in Mexicali, Baja California, Mexico and high school in Flagstaff, Arizona, USA. Applying semistructured interviews with narrative elements to students from both countries, we show the school discontinuities that exist between the respective educational systems. We conclude that these "transnational students" are not being addressed in their cultural diversity and pose a challenge for educational institutions. Moreover, their experiences and support networks are not leveraged by educational policies nor by the monocultural and mono-national school institutions in both contexts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
